I see your point here. I would ask others to chime in - if I get a few move votes for this proposal I am happy to make those changes. I assume you are referring to the group games here, right?

Yes, that’s correct. It’s a very different ball game during elimination stage 😆

When entering a BBL tournament it would be helpful to limit the number of challenges in your ladder games so as not to be restrained by a 25 game limit and filling up your dance card.

They usually have a whole line of unfinished games.

Of course it’s not hard, but now we are talking about addressing the issue

I wonder whether we are trying to solve a non-existent problem? In the last 4 completed competitors, 2 were finished before the middle of the month and December was the slowest ending on 24th. Maybe people had conflicting priorities at that time of year. Otherwise, I think participants are meeting the rules and the intent of the competition.

Let's not continue to wish for more. Let's be grateful for Leoton and this competition which brings fun and frustration for the entertainment of us all.

I have to raise my hand as the slow one in my group. However, I was struck with a horribly painful back that kept me in bed for a couple of weeks - just as play was authorized. All I could do was try to make sure I didn't time out of any of my games before I could play "full-time" again.

I notified Leoton about it, but of course, nobody else would know unless he announced it. I appreciate his discretion although it would not have mattered to me, anyway.

Gem001, I laud your post above and am grateful for your patience in our own tournament game. Above all, a BIG Thank You! to Leoton for what he has done here - and for his great patience & effort in administering it!! 👍
